Grounded Resilience Training
9:30am
Duration:
6 hours
Description
Challenges, stress, tensions, and conflict are inevitable in life and work. Right now, organizations and nonprofits are under attack. People are feeling overwhelmed by the onslaught every day. How do you meet these challenging times and stay grounded? How much resilience do you have to fall back on when stress and conflict occurs?
In the Grounded Resilience Training, instructor Jen Wofford will provide specific, learnable skills to increase your personal resilience and interpersonal effectiveness. The Center for Grounded Action has taken the best of neuroscience and psychotherapy practices and boiled it down to four specific, learnable skills that give people the tools to be more effective, to manage tensions and challenges, and to develop relational intelligence and resilience. The Grounded Resilience model gives you four actionable tools – two skills for how to manage internal stress and reactivity, and two skills for how to communicate your needs and address tensions or conflicts.
We engage in lots of exercises and practice, giving you a different experience of communication and conflict, so that you leave with more skills to manage difficult situations, understand yourself and others, manage teams, improve your relationships and work dynamics, and interact more skillfully and with greater ease. These four steps are the basis for the Grounded Resilience model, which can move a community out of conflict. We draw on methods like Nonviolent Communication, Imago Mirroring, Internal Family Systems, and Somatic practices, methods in which we are trained. Our goal is to give people and organizations the resilience to amplify their impact and effectiveness. Grounded Resilience can make your people or organization 10x more effective wherever they operate in the world.
Grounded Resilience training gives you the ability to:
- Work through conflicts without losing your cool or shutting down,
- See a problem and know how to resolve it, rather than amplify it
- Experience empathy for another and for your own needs simultaneously
- Step into challenging times with new skills and practices to bring people together
- Our goal is to help people and organizations amplify their impact and effectiveness.
Join us for a transformative training in Grounded Resilience. The Grounded Resilience training is empowering organizers, directors, leaders, and every day people to develop the practices they need to support interpersonal effectiveness and sustainable action. More than simply a leadership development workshop, we are offering a transformative training that brings awareness, healing, and resilience from the center out across three layers – healing people’s internal parts, interpersonal relationships, and community and organizational ecosystems.
MKI will provide coffee and pastries in the morning and lunch in the afternoon.
